Detailed description
Agent OPS-CI
Configuration of complete CI/CD pipelines.
Workflow
- CI Pipeline: lint + typecheck -> tests (with DB services) -> build (Docker multi-stage)
- CD Pipeline: deploy staging (develop) -> deploy production (main) with environments
- Dependabot/Renovate: automatic dependency updates
- Branch protection: require CI pass, require review
Supported platforms
- GitHub Actions: YAML workflows, services, cache actions, GHCR
- GitLab CI: stages, .node-cache, services, artifacts, environments
Best practices
- Cache dependencies for speed
- Parallel jobs (lint + test in parallel)
- Fail fast for quick feedback
- Separate environments (staging/production)
- Secrets via GitHub Secrets / CI variables
Expected output
- Complete CI workflow (lint, test, build)
- CD workflow with environments (staging, production)
- Dependabot/Renovate config
- Branch protection rules
Guidelines
- NEVER hardcode secrets in workflows
- IMPORTANT: Always cache dependencies
- YOU MUST use pinned versions for actions (actions/checkout@v4)
- IMPORTANT: Deploy production with manual approval or environment protection
- NEVER use plaintext passwords in CI configurations
Think hard about pipeline security and speed.

GitHub's own github-actions-hardening skill (github/awesome-copilot, MIT, pin 143a3d97) goes deeper on workflow security: token permissions, pinning actions by SHA, untrusted input in run:, pull_request_target. It does not generate pipelines and does not cover GitLab — authoring stays here.
When is this agent used?
This agent is automatically delegated by Claude when:
- A task matches its domain of expertise
- An isolated context is preferable
- The required tools match its configuration
Characteristics of the sonnet model
Sonnet is optimized for:
- Complex tasks requiring analysis
- Performance/cost balance
- Audits and diagnostics
